Council Tax Assistance For Pensioners (EDM1879)

Council Tax Assistance For Pensioners

EDM number 1879 in 2005-06, proposed by Lindsay Hoyle on 22/03/2006.

That this House warmly welcomes the Chancellor's Budget, which includes an extra Â£585 million for schools, free national bus travel for pensioners and increases in Child Tax Credit; calls on the Chancellor to look again at his decision not to provide assistance to pensioners to pay council tax bills, many of whom struggle on fixed incomes to pay the increases in their council tax; and calls on the Chancellor to re-introduce the Â£100 payment to all pensioners to assist them in paying their council tax.

This motion has been signed by a total of 21 MPs.
